The Villa Crest

[Gerrin]

I have a theory that we all have an ingrained emotional attachment to whatever the badge was at the time we first started following the team, especially if you were very young.  For me, it's the round one, as that feels the most 'Villa' to me, even though you can see from those images it stands out as the exception in the last 150-odd years.

Who do you think is the proper Dr Who?

The Dr Who argument falls down with me because I started watching in the eighties but then I grew up and realised that, obviously, Patrick Troughton is the best, really. I'm fortunate with the badge debate in that I just happened to start watching when we had our best badge.

Obviously Tom Baker

Definitely Tom Baker. I'm sure I read somewhere once he wouldn't even appear with the other Drs at events and conventions. Such was his fan base.

Another vote for the round badge too, absolute classic.

I love the round badge, it’s just perfect. I do like the 57’ shield and quite like the claret lion on its own with AV below.

Has this topic come up at any recent meeting between club and supporters and if it did what was the response from the club. I appreciate in the grand scheme of things it might not make the top of the list but for some it means a bit more. For me, like others anything that immediately reminds  us of the Lerner era needs dismantling. It wasn’t all bad but that crest was a change during his tenure and it would be great to go back to something that provides us fonder memories of the club.

The round one. The only one of them that evokes feelings, warmth and memories. A work of art.

As I can't find Risso's, this one is my favourite:

I can't remember who came up with it, but my favourite crest is this one

In first place is the round one, in second place is the round one and in third place is probably the round one.

As I can't find Risso's, this one is my favourite:

This one?

[Legion]

Yes. That one.

[martin o`who??]

Probably because it’s when I started going with my dad, but I think the late 60’s early early 70’s are my favourite two. My very first Villa kit (yellow shirt with blue collar and cuffs) had a blue lion, how I loved that shirt

My first kit too , my brother bought it for me. I have the Repro of it now which you can't get any more . I've worn it once and it's too sacred to wear again. I wore it in the club before a game and blokes were stopping me and asking me where I got it from.

The round badge 110% . If I had to chose a runner up the 3rd image with the Lion Rampant and "Prepared" motto.

[KNVillan]

My first Villa shirt had the 3rd image as the badge (67-ish), my next shirt had the 4th but my favourite is the round badge

[Sexual Ealing]

I've never seen an episode of Dr Who? But it's the round one.

[German James]

As I can't find Risso's, this one is my favourite:

I am deeply honoured. And also amazed that it's still somehow accessible.
